ORD LEVERHULME’S prestige as a collector is fully maintained by his 
porcelain. It falls, as do the remainder of his works of art, into quite 
distinct categories—Chinese, English, and a few Continental pieces. In 
so much that is fine it is invidious to single out any one item for special 
notice, but the Chamberlain Worcester Dessert Service, which has on each 
piece a beautifully painted scene from one of Shakespeare’s plays with the 
appropriate quotation on the reverse, is not only interesting and extremely 
beautiful, but unique. The collection of powder-blue china too, is so com- 
prehensive as almost to defeat its own ends by the number of pieces; each 
single item is rare. Anyone who has seen Lord Leverhulme’s room at The 
Hill, furnished with gems of old satinwood, the walls hung with English 
eighteenth century landscapes, and decorated solely with powder-blue porce- 
lain, will acknowledge that for pure beauty and decorative effect it would 


be difficult to surpass. C. WoopWARD
